I tried to make salmon patties the other night.  Ya, it was a total failure.  In fact, they weren't even salmon patties at all, but rather tuna fish patties.  Bleh!  In my moment of stress, with the two girls begging me for sandwiches, the baby screaming, and daddy about to arrive home in a few minutes, I accidentally opened up tuna fish cans instead of the salmon.  To make my salmonless salmon patty even worse, I forgot to put any sort of seasoning in my tuna mixture.  Needless to say, they turned out pretty gross.  We ate them though!  Mmmmm...good.  Flavorless tuna fish patties over rice.  Yum.  I never thought I would reach this point in my life, where I can't even make a simple salmon patty.  Kids will do that to you, I guess :)   I used to be such a good, creative cook.  Now, I just make whatever I can as quickly as possible and with one hand (the other hand is usually holding the baby).  Pancakes, rice and beans, cereal anybody?
